I'm sure Otis will continue to get much better behaved. Over time he will
be an angel. Ten years from now you'll look at the lump on the lving room
rug and remember fondly that rambunctious pup.

On the suggestion of a friend I watched "The Dog Whisperer" on the
National Geographic channel. According to last night's expert Otis will
not be an adult until he's three! It's just the constant destruction
that makes me nuts. Yesterday he took a roll of paper towels (still in
the holder) and turned it into confetti. It's that sort of thing that
makes me want to hurt him. However, some of his behavior has improved
dramatically. For instance, he can go piddle in the back yard and come
back inside without chasing the cats, and that is an excellent thing. I
know he gets lonely staying in the kitchen all the time, but he's still
way to rambunctious to go anywhere else in the house. He is definitely
better on the leash -- not great yet, but much better.

The same front that's bring you a blizzard brought us about 2-3 inches
of
snow last night. Our streets are still covered because there's not
enough
traffic to melt it, but I understand the streets in real towns around
here
are perfectly clear. It's not going to reach 40 degrees here today --
brrr;
however, it will be close to 60 by the middle of next week. Otis was a
hoot
in the snow. He was initially wary, but when it stuck his nose in it
he
apparently loved what he found. The next thing I knew he was running
with
his nose under the snow like a snowplow. :-)
